Knowing the legal difference between a consultant and an employee is important for a company that needs to hire someone in
Nicaragua or for a person interested in rendering services for a
company or another person, due to the fact that the nature of
the contractual relationship will determine many factors that both
parties must be aware of before executing the contracting modality that will govern the relationship between them - the nature
of the contractual relationship impacts on the employment benefits, tax implications and liabilities that the parties must comply
with according to the law. ¬†labor_law_in_nicaragua
